With or without you

See the stone set in your eyes
See the thorn twist in your side
I wait for you

Sleight of hand and twist of fate
On a bed of nails she makes me wait
And I wait without you

With or without you
With or without you

Through the storm we reach the shore
You give it all but I want more
And I'm waiting for you


With or without you
With or without you
I can't live
With or without you

And you give yourself away
And you give yourself away
And you give
And you give
And you give yourself away

My hands are tied
My body bruised, she's got me with
Nothing to win and
Nothing left to lose

And you give yourself away
And you give yourself away
And you give
And you give
And you give yourself away

With or without you
With or without you
I can't live
With or without you

With or without you
With or without you
I can't live
With or without you
With or without you

all I want is you


You say you want
Diamonds on a ring of gold
You say you want
Your story to remain untold

But all the promises we make
From the cradle to the grave
When all I want is you

You say you'll give me
A highway with no one on it
Treasure just to look upon it
All the riches in the night


You say you'll give me
Eyes in a moon of blindness
A river in a time of dryness
A harbour in the tempest
But all the promises we make
From the cradle to the grave
When all I want is you

You say you want
Your love to work out right
To last with me through the night

You say you want
Diamonds on a ring of gold
Your story to remain untold
Your love not to grow cold

All the promises we break
From the cradle to the grave
When all I want is you

You...all I want is...
You...all I want is...
You...all I want is...
You...

I still haven't found what I'm looking for



I have climbed highest mountains
I have run through the fields
Only to be with you
Only to be with you
I have run
I have crawled
I have scaled these city walls
These city walls
Only to be with you

But I still haven't found what I'm looking for
But I still haven't found what I'm looking for

I have kissed honey lips
Felt the healing in her fingertips
It burned like a fire
This burning desire

I have spoke with the tongue of angels
I have held the hand of a devil
It was warm in the night
I was cold as a stone



But I still haven't found what I'm looking for
But I still haven't found what I'm looking for

I believe in the Kingdom Come
Then all the colors will bleed into one
Bleed into one
But yes I'm still running

You broke the bonds
And you loosed the chains
Carried the cross
Of my shame
Oh my shame
You know I believe it

But I still haven't found what I'm looking for
But I still haven't found what I'm looking for
But I still haven't found what I'm looking for

lost in space -lighthouse family

 lost in space -lighthouse family

Sometimes I get tired of this me-first attitude
You are the one thing that keeps me smiling
That's why I'm always wishing hard for you

'Cause your light shines so bright
I don't feel no solitude
You are my first star at night
I'd be lost in space without you

And I'll never lose my faith in you
How will I ever get to heaven, if I do

Feels just so fine
When we touch the sky me and you
This is my idea of heaven
Why can't it always be so good?

But it's all right, I know you're out there
Doing what you've gotta do
You are my soul satellite
I'd be lost in space without you


And I'll never lose my faith in you
How will I ever get to heaven, if I do

And I'll never lose my faith in you
How will I ever get to heaven, if I do

And I'll never lose my faith in you
How will I ever get to heaven, if I do

And I'll never lose my faith in you
How will I ever get to heaven, if I do

And I'll never lose my faith in you
How will I ever get to heaven, if I do

dido white flag

I know you think that I shouldn't still love you,
Or tell you that.
But if I didn't say it, well I'd still have felt it
where's the sense in that?

I promise I'm not trying to make your life harder
Or return to where we were

I will go down with this ship
And I won't put my hands up and surrender
There will be no white flag above my door
I'm in love and always will be

I know I left too much mess and
destruction to come back again
And I caused nothing but trouble
I understand if you can't talk to me again
And if you live by the rules of "it's over"
then I'm sure that that makes sense


I will go down with this ship
And I won't put my hands up and surrender
There will be no white flag above my door
I'm in love and always will be

And when we meet
Which I'm sure we will
All that was there
Will be there still
I'll let it pass
And hold my tongue
And you will think
That I've moved on....

I will go down with this ship
And I won't put my hands up and surrender
There will be no white flag above my door
I'm in love and always will be

I will go down with this ship
And I won't put my hands up and surrender
There will be no white flag above my door
I'm in love and always will be

I will go down with this ship
And I won't put my hands up and surrender
There will be no white flag above my door
I'm in love and always will be

Someday we will know New Radical


90 miles outside chicago
Can't stop driving
I don't know why
So many questions
I need an answer

Two years later you're still on my mind
Whatever happened to Emelia Earhart
Who holds the stars up in the sky
Is true love once in a lifetime
Did the captain of the titanic cry

Someday we'll know
If love can move a mountain
Someday we'll know
Why the sky is blue
Someday we'll know


Why I wasn't meant for you
Does anybody know the way to Atlantis
Or what the wind says when she cries
I'm speeding by the place that I met you
For the 97th time tonight

Someday we'll know
If love can move a mountain
Someday we'll know
Why the sky is blue
Someday we'll know
Why I wasn't meant for you
Someday we'll know
Why Samson loved Delilah
One day I'll go
Dancing on the moon

Someday you'll know
That I was the one for you
I bought a ticket to the end of the rainbow
I watched the stars crash in the sea
If I could ask god just one question
Why aren't you here with me
Someday we'll know
If love can move a mountain

Someday we'll know
Why the sky is blue
Someday we'll know
Why I wasn't meant for you
Someday we'll know
Why Samson loved Delilah

One day I'll go
Dancing on the moon
Someday you'll know
That I was the One for you

Come Closer - Rico Blanco

 

Come Closer - Rico Blanco

 I can feel you in the air
Like a silent breeze embrace me
I can see you everywhere
From the stars, to the sea
Ahoooo, what you do to me
Ahoooo, what you mean to me

I cannot wait any longer
Come closer to me now
You smile, and I simply surrender
Come closer to me now

Verse II:
Every little move you make
Sends my heart in to a different pace
I would gladly dedicate
every beat, to you
Ahoooo, what you do to me
Ahoooo, what you mean to me

I cannot wait any longer
Come closer to me now
You smile and I simply surrender
Come closer to me now
Come closer to me now

Sonic Youth Diamond sea


Time takes it's crazy toll
And how does your mirror grow
You better watch yourself when you jump into it
'Cause the mirror's gonna steal your soul

I wonder how it came to be my friend
That someone just like you has come again
You'll never, never know how close you came
Until you fall in love with the diamond rain

Throw all his trash away
Look out he's here to stay
Your mirror's gonna crack when he breaks into it
And you'll never never be the same

Look into his eyes and you can see
Why all the little kids are dressed in dreams
I wonder how he's gonna make it back
When he sees that you just know it's make belief

Blood crystallized as sand
And now I hope you'll understand
You reflected into his looking glass soul
Now the mirror is your only friend

Look into his eyes and you will see
That men are not alone on the diamond sea
Sail into the heart of the lonely storm
And tell her that you'll love her eternally

Time takes it's crazy toll
Mirror fallin' off the wall
You better look out for the looking glass girl
'Cause she's gonna take you for a fall

Look into his eyes and you shall see
Why everything is quiet and nothing's free
I wonder how he's gonna make her smile
When love is running wild on the diamond sea

Palo alto something mUst go this way

I'm waking up so fast
To see myself staring back at me
I laugh and ask about
What was this dream I had

What am I trying to hide
Let's hear the secret that you keep
I've been misunderstood
Until it all came to me

It's out there
The state of blinded grace
It keeps us waiting at the door

Where is it
The pantoms liberty
It's hiding all that we know

We're pushing back the time
To breathe it in with a staffled grin
I know I must admit
Some things must go this way

What am I trying to hide
Let's hear the secret that you keep
I've been misunderstood
Until it all came to me

Bic runga sway lyrics and video


Don't stray
Don't ever go away
I should be much to smart for this
You know it gets the better
Of me sometimes
When you and I collide
I fall into an ocean of you
Pull me out in time
Don't let me drown
Let me down
I say its all because of you and here I go
Losing my control
I'm practising your name
So I can say it to your face it doesn't seem right
To look you in the eye
And let all the things you mean to me
Come tumbling out my mouth indeed its time
Tell you why
I say its infinately true


Say you'll stay
Don't come and go
Like you do
Sway my way
Yeah I need to know
All about you
And there's no cure
And no way to be sure
Why everythings turned inside out
Instilling so much doubt
It makes me so tired
I feel so uninspired
My head is battling with my heart
My logic has been torn apart
And now
It all turns sour
Come sweeten
Every afternoon

Say you'll stay
Don't come and go
Like you do
Sway my way
Yeah I need to know
All about you
Say you'll stay
Don't come and go
Like you do
Sway my way
Yeah I need to know
All about you
Its all because of you
Its all because of you

Lotus Flower Lyrics and Video

 Lotus Flower Lyrics and Video

I will shrink myself into your pocket
invisible, do what you want, do what you want
I will shrink and i will disappear
I will slip into the groove and cut me up and cut me up

There's and empty space inside my heart
where the weeds take root
So now I'll set you free
I'll set you free
There's and empty space inside my heart
where the weeds take root
Tonight I'll set you free
I'll set you free

Slowly we unfurl
as lotus flowers
Cause all i want is the moon upon a stick
Just to see what it is
just to see what is
I cant kick the habit
Just to feed your fast ballooning head
Listen to your heart

We will shrink and be quiet as mice
While the cat is away
Do what we want
Do what we want

There's and empty space inside my heart
where the weeds take root
So now I'll set you free
I'll set you free

Cause all i want is the moon upon a stick
Just to see what it is
just to see what is
Put this flower into my room
Slowly we unfurl
as lotus flowers
Cause all i want is the moon upon a stick
Dance around a pit
The darkness is beneath
I cant kick the habit
Just to feed your fast ballooning head
Listen to your heart

sing a song call only one by yellow card

sing a song call only one by yellow card

Broken this fragile thing now
And I can't, I can't pick up the pieces
And I've thrown my words all around
But I can't, I can't give you a reason

I feel so broken up (so broken up)
And I give up (I give up)
I just want to tell you so you know

Here I go, scream my lungs out and try to get to you
You are my only one
I let go, but there's just no one that gets me like you
You are my only, my only one


Made my mistakes, let you down
And I can't, I can't hold on for too long
Ran my whole life in the ground
And I can't, I can't get up when you're gone

And something's breaking up (breaking up)
I feel like giving up (like giving up)
I won't walk out until you know

Here I go, scream my lungs out and try to get to you
You are my only one
I let go, but there's just no one that gets me like you
You are my only my only one

Here I go so dishonestly
Leave a note for you my only one
And I know you can see right through me
So let me go and you will find someone

Here I go, scream my lungs out and try to get to you
You are my only one
I let go, but there's just no one, no one like you
You are my only, my only one
My only one
My only one
My only one
You are my only, my only one

Morrissey calls the Royal family 'benefit scroungers'


Morrissey has blasted the Royal family as "benefit scroungers" and, rather unsurprisingly, has declared that he won't be watching the upcoming royal wedding.

As the UK -- or some parts of it, at least -- prepares to revel in the wedding of Prince William and Kate Middleton on Friday, 29 April, Morrissey was predictably slightly less than enthused about the event.

Speaking on BBC Radio 4 (via BBC News) the former Smiths frontman talked about his nickname for Middleton -- 'Kate Muddleton' -- and took time to lament the British monarchy.

He said: "Why would I watch the wedding? I couldn't take any of that seriously. I don't think the so-called Royal family speak for England now, and I don't think England needs them."

He added: "I do seriously believe that they are benefit scroungers, nothing else. I don't believe they serve any purpose whatsoever. I'm not an anarchist, but I believe that people don't want the Royal family -- the so-called Royal family. They're not royal to me, but they're royal to the media for some reason."

toe - So that everyone can get back to their Ordinary Days




So that everyone can get back to their Ordinary Days.

On March 11, 2011, an M9 earthquake hit the north-eastern regions of Japan. Many were killed, and the survivors lost their homes and are now living in evacuation.
We, who live in the urban areas of Tokyo and Kanagawa, were also hit with the earthquake, but fortunately for us, life is close to ordinary, being able to wake up in the morning, ride the trains, and go back to our homes. There is nothing special; these are our regular, ordinary days. But we can't imagine the hardships of not being able to lead a normal life. Because we scramble every month just to get by ourselves, it's hard for us to make a large financial contribution. So, we've decided to make music instead.
The total proceeds from the sales of our music here, minus the fees collected by the record distribution company (which we can't control) will be donated to either the Japan Platform (http://www.japanplatform.org) or Save the Children (http://www.savechildren.or.jp/index.html) Foundation. Of course, it's faster if you to donate directly. But we thought it might be nice for you to think of this as getting something in return for what you give. Or vice-versa.
May this be a trigger for others to help out in supporting the recovery from this earthquake disaster.
With our wishes for everyone to get back on their feet again, and lead their Ordinary Days...
And, no more nuclear power plants.

Toe is a Japanese music group that formed in 2000. While mentioned in many post-rock circles, their song structure and dynamics are similar to many popular math rock artists. The vast majority of the music is instrumental and features the swift and acute drumming of Takashi. The band has changed their sound over their musical tenure by incorporating acoustic guitars, Rhodes piano, and vibraphones in their most recent releases.

The band started performing live in July 2001, a few times a month at nightclubs. They began recording their debut EP “Songs, Ideas We Forgot” in February 2002, and released it two months later on April 17th of the same year. In July 2003 toe released a split CD EP with Pele through an independent label, Muziq, and the following September the band released a remix album Re:Designed.

In April 2004 Toe contributed a song to the MOTOWN tribute CD, “ROCK MOTOWN” and the following June the Pele/Toe split was released on vinyl through Polyvinyl Records. In April 2005 the band began recording their first album. Four months later on August 31st, Toe’s anticipated debut album “The Book About My Idle Plot on a Vague Anxiety” was released.

Mian Tiara – The Comfort of My Own Company (2010)


Artist : Mian Tiara
Album :
The Comfort of My Own Company
Label : Demajors Independent Music Industry/Ragadi Music

“Among the crowd of thrown voices and dialogues, she still talks to herself.” Mian Tiara

In our daily activities like meeting thousands of people along with the voices and sounds around us or even standing in the middle of busy crowds, there are moments when our minds fly away from the scene and have a conversation with ourselves thoroughly, just between us and our own thoughts alone, nothing more and nothing less. And we have to admit that we need to have it sometimes. Some artists have been living in the rushing music scene for quite some time. They have to deal with schedules, deadlines and activities, and they also need some moments where they can draw themselves away from everything and find the comfort of their own company. In such a case we have Mian Tiara, who speaks out honestly and personally about her inner self in deep resulting in a brilliant album with the title that explains the whole things, “The Comfort of My Own Company.”


Mian Tiara’s name might not be familiar to some people yet but actually she’s not a new comer in the music industry. Mian Tiara (4)She’s definitely not someone who has just been found, being given some songs then splashed into the market. She’s not the result of instant industrial product either. She has started her dream since long, long time ago, that one day she will give amount of contributions in music and will be listened by many music lovers. She didn’t stop by just for dreaming, she has been persistent to pursue her dream she has since she was still a little girl. She attended a classical guitar course when she was in 6th grade of elementary school. It might be a surprise that she could even play drum and piano as well. The blessings don’t stop there since she is also gifted in vocal. Her vocal is able to pour out her feelings to reach our hearts in no time. She’s able to speak out her heart and mind, from the simplest thing she feels to the most painful ones to scream out in poetic lyrics, heartfelt melodies and touching vocals. With all these gifts dwelt inside her, it’s not difficult to believe that she will emerge as one of the most important artists to look for in the near future.

Tiara started her talents in song writing. She can write meaningful lyrics in poetry either in Indonesian or English. Many artists have tasted her magic touch as she has shared her signature with Indra Lesmana, Riza Arshad, Ermy Kullit, Humania and Andien to name a few. She’s also supporting the independent community as well since she is involved heavily in some projects of indie bands from White Shoes and the Couples Company, Good Night Electric, to the most recent one, sharing her voice joining SORE on “The Hitman”, one of the song found in SORE’s newest album, “Sombreros Kiddos”. She’s also active in making jingle as backing vocal for her friends and acted as tour manager for White Shoes & The Couples Company. But perhaps the most noticeable achievement came when she won AMI (Anugerah Musik Indonesia) Awards for “The Best Original Jazz Song” category with Indra Lesmana for Rumah Ketujuh OST. Mian Tiara shines brightly with her “behind the scenes” career, and now it’s about time for her to take some time to find her soul, what comforts her the most and bring them out for us to listen. “The Comfort of My Own Company” is the album in which Tiara speaks out her feelings about many things in honesty, just totally being herself. It’s a diary-like debut solo album that mirrored her soul in lovely writings and arrangements.

Having met the like of EQ Puradiredja of Humania, Indra Lesmana or Riza Arshad has helped her to sharpen her sense in several aspects especially in deeper encounter with jazz. For this project she got many supportive friends. Her long time partner whom she has been working with for 10 years Riza Arshad contributed as the playing music director for the album. Indra Lesmana also backed her up, along with Nikita Dompas, Indra Perkasa, Anda Perdana, Avi Bortnick, Elfa Zulham Syah and John Navid. You can catch her “free as a bird” soul in this album that somehow reminiscence the soul of Fiona Apple, Feist and the like. She also has the artistic touch of Joni Mitchell within. She is told to be inspired by wide range of artists from Joni Michell, Tori Amos, Led Zeppelin, John Coltrane to Imogen Heap or even the legendary maestro of Indonesia, Ismail Marzuki to name a few. With this colorful source of inspiration and the journey she’s been walking through, it would be impossible to trap her into a small segmented box. As Riza Arshad also said, “With all her experience, she’s simply can’t be put into a particular box.” And that’s something we can’t help but agree. Listen to “The Comfort of My Own Company”, you will sense many musical essences in variety. Folk could be a major influence in this album, but there is nuance of jazz which is really stronger in some songs, acoustic pop even rock embedded nicely in her songs. Some songs are light, but some can be real dark and deep, either way she’s giving strong artistic touches that are still easy to love by the music lovers in general.

The album starts with a folk-ish ballad “The Memories of You”. If you like Joni Mitchell this song will surely hit the spot. It’s a perfect song to introduce Mian Tiara completely describing who she is and what she feels in beautiful poetic lyrics as a part of the song says: “I’m a lonely writer, I live in box of words, I took memories of you and make it into my songs.” The next song “Little Space in Between” captures the soothing and relaxing nuance of Kings of Convenience with the acoustic guitar backing her in telling the story of breaking up in different perspective, as something that is supposed to be that way. “Disapih” is a word in Indonesian that literally means the moment when a baby is weaned from his mother. Tiara used this word to describe the situation that she can’t fight anymore. Through this song she expressed her disappointment in the sorrowful moan over haunting set of melodies. She gives her emotion out through her vocal completely and brings us to feel the pain. It sounds lighter in the band version on the 3rd track along with some jazz ambiences, while later in the acoustic version she brings it differently in a lot darker and sadder.

The next song is “Selalu Ada”, again showing her ability in pouring herself poetically in ear catchy acoustic folk. “Am I The One” starts with lovely piano textures that accompanies her on telling her sadness. Interestingly she chose to deliver this song in English and Indonesian, showing her expertise to express her feeling in both languages. Another song in two versions follows, “Not Even in Love”. In the band version she brings some nuance of world music by bringing kendang into the song, while in the acoustic version she offers the sadder version in slower tempo. She changes the atmosphere on the next song entitled “Against the Obvious”. Funky, chunky and bluesy guitar helps Tiara to show her rockin’ side in playful melodies. This is a song which appears differently compared to most tracks in the album. And let’s talk about the last song to mention, “Ini Rindu”. This song is simply a winner. She only needs 1:41 minutes to give a masterpiece, as if the maestro Ismail Marzuki had written it. With the thickest jazz nuance compared to the rest of the songs, this one brings back the beauty of classic style of songs in the purest and most honest way.

Listening over Mian Tiara’s “The Comfort of my Own Company” is like peeping through her own diary. There are some moments in her life she wants to share with all her listeners. Interestingly this is not a boring heart-pouring sessions, instead Tiara invites us into a journey from one topic to another. With the brilliant writing and heartfelt melodies, Mian Tiara is ready to bring you into the comfort zone, despite what your favorite style of music is. She doesn’t necessarily has to be placed into one small particular box, her talent is far too big to be fitted in that, what matter most is the honesty she pours in each line. As she finds the comfort of her own company, now we are all invited to feel it as well. Ear catchy melody, poetic lyrics, pure and honest, all these aspects will burst all over the tracks. This album is personal and more than enough to show who she really is, both in person and creativity. This album will just be perfect to accompany you in finding the comfort of your own company. Simply put, it’s the kind of album that will be too bad to be missed.

Sunday is gloomy,

My hours are slumberless

Dearest the shadows

I live with are numberless

Little white flowers

Will never awaken you

Not where the black coaches

Sorrow has taken you

Angels have no thoughts

Of ever returning you

Wouldn’t they be angry
If I thought of joining you?


Gloomy sunday

Gloomy is sunday

With shadows I spend it all

My heart and I have decided

To end it all

Soon there’ll be candles and prayers

That are said I know

But let them not weep

Let them know

That I’m glad to go

Death is no dream

For in death I’m caressi’n you

With the last breath of my soul
I’ll be blessin’ you



Gloomy sunday

Dreaming

I was only dreaming

I wake and I find you asleep

In the deep of my heart here

Darling I hope

That my dream never haunted you

My heart is tellin’ you

How much I wanted you
Gloomy sunday

(“Gloomy Sunday” performed by Billie Holliday)

This seems very contrary to the past as a rockstar lifestyle that is identical with the alcohol and narcotics.

Gallagher stated, "I become more spiritual person, I feel a connectedness with something larger. There's something great up there that makes us do our best for ourselves and others. People want to listen to us play music, and we are a small part of a bigger picture. "

There seems to be a drastic change in self-Gallagher, he has spent much of his time to work out playing golf and running. He also chose healthy foods such as lettuce. Liam added: "But I am not going to turn into someone like Bono," sarkastiknya style that has not changed.

"I do not want to sound like a hippies, but I am now running, like birds, trees, and with the golf I can enjoy it all. I still eat fish but I try to eat a lot of lettuce. Only the smoking habit that I still can not stop, "lid Gallagher in an interview with DailyStar.
